KPMG issued a report citing all the transformational ways GenAI has transformed industry, it’s been widely cited.

@compliance @GossiTheDog No one reads those reports anyway so if AI generates them with even more crap in them, no one will notice. But the reports will be absorbed in the database for more AI to digest.
What could go wrong?@bouriquet @compliance @GossiTheDog Don’t forget: AI is generating the snackable summaries as well

One minor problem: it turns they used AI to write the report, and it made up all of the evidence.
KPMG have now withdrawn the report in full.

100% what they wanted. Says they pulled the report from "some" of their websites. So they appease some skeptics and fools. Rinse repeat, and soon the lies are homogenized.Similar to AI spitting out art-slop for prints 24/7/365 and putting it in front of people to find out what is ignored or accepted. Then deleting the art-slop least shared or sold.

A KPMG report on how Al is being used by businesses across the world exaggerated adoption of the technology with bogus case studies that appear to have been based on AI hallucinations.
The October report, "Redefining excellence in the age of agentic AI", made numerous false claims about the use of AL by organisations including the Swiss bank UBS, the UK's National Health Service and the public transit groups Swiss Federal Railways and Transport for London.
The inaccuracies were identified as AI hallucinations by the research group GPTZero and verified by the FT. After being alerted to the issue, UBS said it would ask KPMG to remove the false claims, and the Big Four firm on Thursday pulled the report from some of its websites.
The discovery is the latest in a number of apparent AI hallucinations in reports by professional services firms and follows EY's retraction of a study last month over fake footnotes and other errors identified by GPTZero.
The KPMG report claimed global wealth manager UBS "integrates Al agents across investment advisory, risk management and compliance monitoring". -

OK. What's a good business name that somehow involves "Derp" and/or "Herp" that offers boutique sycophancy services that don't use AI?
Herp de Derp Enterprises doesn't AI.
What's a good rate? Should it charge by the hour or by ego milestone?
You think there would be a good market pairing with "Derpdy Dew Lawn Services"? Maybe a package deal?

@briankrebs@infosec.exchange @GossiTheDog@cyberplace.social You would have thought that the large, er, "thought leading" consulting firms would have been violently anti-AI; verbose sycophancy as a service is basically the whole business model. That and pre-arranged supplier approval with large orgs so that nobody manages to hire any consultants who are actual experts.
@mavnn @GossiTheDog I quote tooted your post, but it's still telling me you have to approve showing the quote.

@GossiTheDog
From the article:
"Hallucinations are a growing problem across the professional services. Elite law firm Sullivan & Cromwell also admitted in April that a filing it submitted in a bankruptcy case contained numerous AI-generated inaccuracies, including misreadings [sic] of the US bankruptcy code."
I'm sorry, #WTH ?! I couldn't open the link. -
